I was all for a Star Wars pack...but this wasn’t what I had in mind. I thought we’d get a simified version of Star Wars...something based on Star Wars but uniquely made for the sims. But this is literally just a virtual version of Disney worlds version of Star Wars and does feel like just a big advertisement to visit the park given that it’s an identical virtual rendition. I would have rather it been a more transparent straight up Disney world theme park pack with magic kingdom included. This feels like a lie...like they told us it would be Star Wars but it’s actually just Disney world’s take on Star Wars. It’s diluted. I want Simsney not Disney.
I agree with someone earlier in the thread who said the sims team probably had no choice in the matter (not that that means they were against it necessarily, but it probably wasn’t an option whether they liked it or not). Looks like a potentially profitable partnership between EA and Disney that led to this. I guess we should have been suspicious when baby yoda made an appearance in game last year.
All that said, I will still probably eventually buy the pack and will still be able to enjoy it as I love Star Wars, Disney world, and the sims. I’m just disappointed. I was hoping for something more uniquely sims.
